The Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha

If I had written that everybody would have ignored it. But when a white male writes it, it's some great insight. Typical.

See? There's your problem, right there.
If you were really, really, from Wisconsin, you'd call yourself "Sconnies."
It's like where D2 used to live. You don't say "West Allis." You say, "Stallis."
But, it's Friday night, and there are no fish-frys here in the Chicago 'burbs, so...whatever.

Another president incites insurrection
Biden calls for calm but says Rittenhouse 'not guilty' verdict leaves him 'angry and concerned'
The president says Americans should protest 'peacefully'
President Biden called on Americans to protest "peacefully" and follow the law following the jury's verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, which he said left him "angry and concerned."
"I urge everyone to express their views peacefully, consistent with the rule of law," Biden said in a statement ahead of expected protests. "Violence and destruction of property have no place in our democracy."

Yeah the left hates American institutions that don't toe the leftist line. Such as an objectively just verdict that is at odds with leftist outrage. Our tribal leftist president is angry and concerned that an objectively just verdict didn't toe leftist outrage lines. Yeah, congratulations, welcome to America. It's the one the idiots wanted. At least the court made the right decision.

They should make their voice be heard!

Watch Biden turn Justice loose on him.
The weapon meets the criteria for a straw purchase.

Could he face civil penalties? I'm not sure how you establish that he was 51% at fault here when other guys were coming after him with guns.

Considering he was found not guilty by reason of self defense, I'd say the probability of success in a civil suit would be slim to nil.
But I'm sure some sleazy lawyer out there will try.
Good luck with that. They better be prepared for a counter-suit.

Rittenhouse and his friend, Dominick Black, testified that Black, who was 18 at the time, used Rittenhouse's money to purchase the weapon at a Wisconsin hardware store in May 2020. The two reportedly agreed that Black would keep the gun until Rittenhouse turned 18 in January 2021, according to court testimony.
Black is now being prosecuted for participating in the illegal straw purchase of the weapon on behalf of Rittenhouse. But Rittenhouse's possession of the firearm at the time was technically legal.

So I guess that means Rittenhouse isn’t getting it back… He better go get another, I’m afraid he will likely need it.

Self-defense was never an argument for OJ. In this case we have pretty clear video showing over and over that Rittenhouse never fired until he was being threatened and attacked in EACH situation.

That’s not the point. The point is that a not-guilty verdict doesn’t save you from civil liability, which is a much lower bar. I’d say the odds are better than even that Rittenhouse will lose at least one civil suit. Perhaps multiple.
